Heidenheim and Kiel look to find rhythm at the Voith-Arena
The early stages of the 2. Bundesliga season have produced a whirlwind of high-scoring encounters for FC Heidenheim, who now prepare to host Holstein Kiel this Sunday, 13 September 2026. With the match kicking off at the Voith-Arena, both sides are eager to establish consistency after navigating a challenging opening month of the campaign.
FC Heidenheim have been involved in some of the most dramatic fixtures of the new season, characterized by a willingness to commit bodies forward. Their recent 5-3 victory over Dynamo Dresden and a narrow 1-0 win against Greuther Fuerth on 6 September demonstrate the volatile nature of their current form. While their attacking output remains high, the team will be wary of late-game lapses that have seen them concede 5 goals after the 75th minute in their last 10 outings.
Holstein Kiel arrive at the Voith-Arena looking to sharpen their defensive resolve after a series of competitive draws. Phil Harres has emerged as the focal point of their attack, netting 6 goals in his last 6 appearances, while Adrian Kapralik continues to be a creative engine for the side. Their ability to share the scoring burden will be vital as they attempt to improve upon a recent run that saw them share the points in a 2-2 stalemate with Nuernberg.
Both managers appear to have a clean bill of health, with no high-impact absences reported ahead of this matchday 5 clash. FC Heidenheim are expected to line up with Thomas Daehne in goal, supported by a defensive unit featuring Patrick Mainka and Oualid Mhamdi. In midfield, Marcel Costly will be tasked with linking play for forward Budu Zivzivadze.
Holstein Kiel are expected to field Timon Weiner in goal, with a back four led by John Tolkin and David Zec. The midfield battle will likely feature Jonas Meffert and Guillermo Balzi, while Phil Harres and Adrian Kapralik are expected to lead the line in search of goals. With no significant injury concerns for either side, both teams are set to field their strongest available options.
Meetings between these two clubs have rarely lacked intensity, with their previous history reflecting a back-and-forth rivalry. In their most recent league meeting back in March 2025, FC Heidenheim secured a 3-1 victory, though Holstein Kiel had claimed a 1-0 win earlier that same season. As both teams look to climb the table, this latest chapter at the Voith-Arena promises to be another closely contested affair in the 2. Bundesliga.
